See, I do not see a problem with this, why must there be some dumbass argument from devs that assuming players will be immature if they introduce this.

It looks cool, the same as an orc blademaster with not chest armor but belt and leggings look cool.

While I totally agree it would be nice to have invisible chests for the reason you want, I do also see an issue arising with people running around with their bras showing and no pants if we had complete invisible item offerings, doesn't bother me personally if they do that, but in the game it would be rather immersion breaking to see folks doing battle or running around in their underwear. Especially if there was no downside to them doing it. ie. no stat loss due to it being a transmog.

I do feel your pain though, would be awesome to see some of the amazing transmogs that could be put together with an invisible chest piece for male toons.

I'd love to transmog shoulders and chest off but I think shoulders are the most reasonable to turn off and maybe waist. If you could hide chest you would just have a bunch of people running around shirtless with the sole purpose of looking goofy instead of using it as part of a set. doesn't really bother me either way and I doubt it will happen

yeah in all of my transmog sets I find shoulders particularly annoying. It's usually just an attempt to get a shoulder piece that would be the least noticeable rather than one that actually goes well with the set

It's a tossup between shoulders and belt for me. Many of my sets really don't want to use a belt, or the set I'm using HAS no matching belt. I personally don't really have much use for no shoulders, but I've seen a lot of transmog sets people use that would indeed look much better without them. So personally it's the belt for me, but overall, definitely the shoulders.

yes but people do this anyway. all you have to do is stand around in orgrimmar or stormwind and your see a female dwarf or female troll with there strapless bra bouncing around. So really, it doesn't change a thing, only thing it changes is allowing people this option ingame.
and when blizzard makes armor that ironicly transforms from a complete overhauled plate chest to well.. this.. its obvious blizzard doesn't really care about modesty as much as they preach.

Seeing how just about every other mmo out there now gives you that option.

waist
some robes look better without a belt ruining it. like the latest warlock tier set

plus, with races who are hunched over with there stomachs in, like orcs, trolls and worgen, when wearing a robe these new belt designs with the buckles just clips though there legs or the robe itself.. again, poor design blizzard, that we need to ask for invisible armor to sort out your clipping issues.
